“…Indeed, 84% of the 'low dose' hypoxia studies (k = 9 in humans; k = 11 in animals) observed beneficial effects on measures of global cognition, memory, attention, motor function, and neuroplasticity markers (i.e., increased levels of neurotrophins, EPO, neurogenesis, etc.) [9,18,19,[22][23][24]26,[42][43][44][45]53,65,69,73]. In contrast, only 18% of the studies with higher doses of hypoxia exposure (k = 1 in hu-mans; k = 37 in animals) showed beneficial effects, while 79% reported negative effects on cognition, brain structure, oxidative stress, inflammation, and Alzheimer's disease markers [20,27,28,31,32,35,36,[38][39][40][41]47,49,50,54,57,59,[61][62][63][64]66,[69][70][71][72].…”
